they wont pull youtube tier data from the getgo

doesn't google operate Youtube at a loss?

@Gorgethtru

yes

ye, but i imagine there is a lot going on there that is... wastefull

if everyone moves to bitchute - they'll force article 13 on the US too

Lol

imagine what all the content ethics checkers cost

Yes @Hearts™

imagine the dark age of having to download Timcast videos on Torrent using a VPN

Article 13 @Hearts™

you mean the future?

it's worth it for google because they can control it and use it for pushing ideology

Mhm

and they're willing to pay for that

who's "they"?

google

i think yt is breaking even now

Forcing an "ecosystem" like apple, but more encompassing

I doubt google cares about ideology ... they care about profits

they seem to care quite a bit

Wot? @wacka

@Timcast ^teach him bro

I think a section of google does, but i doubt the board of directors or investors in google care about ideology.

tfw google went evil right after they hired moot

if ideology gets in the way of profits, they will u-turn

<:serval_think:417278336100990995>

I think it's partially true. The ideology can often be part of their marketing strategy, used to make money. Look at all the companies who push progressive ideas very vocally.

i think also its the violent people they are worried about too

google doesn't care about ideology *cough James Damore cough*

yeah that memo was leaked... they didnt fire him until it was leaked

on the flip side google shot down the employee petition to tie exec compensation to diversity metrics

when they thought they might get bad PR and lose profits

or get fire bombed by antifa

So then it's probably safe to say that Google's bottom line is about public image

which leads to lost profits

You are mostly correct wacka, except the HR ppl. The HR ppl care deeply about ideology.

i'm sure they have insurance to cover antifa attacks

I remember Tim brought up something that put mainsteam media and modern marketing as part of "the resistance"

i think thats true for most big corps, the difference is where you draw the line to maintain a certain image vs all other business factors

and if tnsurance companies see people shouting google is full of nazis and it looks like antifa are gonna burn them down and hack them and all that crap... what do you think will happen to googles insurance premiums?
